    While APMEX was down, I discovered Gainesville Coins.

  • Ya, I think they came back up yesterday. Yet another indication that the PM boom is over.

    Yeah I noticed they were back online....I had put an order in with them and when their site went down my order disappeared. Oh well...I spent the $ over on the BST forum anyway. Didn;t buy the same type of coin but that is OK...

    Good Point!
    While APMEX was down, I discovered reliability, reputability, and responsibility lay elsewhere; so I re-visited some familiar haunts lile my favorite B&M and
    Southland Coins In Lake Charles for my bulk needs.
    It was a good thing the colours were flown and clarity prevailed.

    Their web site was down-they weren't out of business.

    I was going to purchase from them but now they don't take credit cards. I usually would not buy with a credit card but thought I might use it as some people were worried about getting their purchases and I wanted to have a recourse in case the silver did not show.

    Where did you see this? according to thier FAQs:


    << <i>Payments

    What form of payment does American Precious Metals Exchange accept?

    Payment to APMEX must be provided using a credit card, bank wire, certified check, cashiers check, money orders or personal check. >>




    I tried to order some coins last night but kept on having some problems. I think know why now.

    I'm surprised they don't mention that they charge extra for credit card purchases in this statement.

    When I tried to place an order, I saw this on the order page:

    Our Credit Card payment option is currently unavailable.
    Please select another method until this issue is resolved.

    pfffft - forget Apmex - I would never recommend them to anyone now that I have seen how their micky mouse operation works, and their customer service is horrible. I will no longer be sending them any of my millions of dollars. I hope they go out of business - it would serve them right.



  • How are their prices for junk silver compared to others? What online vendors sell for cheaper?

    In general their cash prices are competitive for PM's so I don't think they will lose to much.

    I need a replacement for APMEX. Anyone know of a good place or two to get Britannias and Kookaburras?
